![BREAKING BOUNDARIES! KOBALT's First Real Mid-Torque Impact Wrench Review [KIW 124B-03]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/oBx1WoJqIdI/mqdefault.jpg)
The Intro Audio is a little messed up i have fixed it and it will be processed shortly.. So just enjoy the rest of the video! :D
The break away torque is 1200nm and max torque 400nm
Please let us know if the Lidls battery fits?
Brave torqueing those lug nuts to 210nm!
Best music is no music at all. I m coming here to see and hear about car and tool stories, not bloomin music. That's why I like ChrisFix channel = no music and no stupid intros in his channel. There are lots of good youtube channels ruined by stupid music they mix in the videos. I just go somewhere else to avoid hassles.
Draper disabled comments on the video. Now confirmed it does work but with mod. I guess you did not want to answer as it would hurt the channel and rep.
Well done Draper for giving the Impact wrench to The Savage Garage !! I have watched the video a few times which is an excellent, informative review and yesterday Santa brought me the wrench. I am looking forward very much to using it and saving from having a bad back each time I undo those stubborn wheel nuts. All I can say is please keep on producing your fantastic videos and maybe Draper might send you more tools to review because without your review I wouldn't have got Santa to get one for me. Once again thanks Draper & The Savage Garden.....Happy New Year !!!
TIP: cover the outer edge of the socket with some insulating tape. This will protect the alloy wheel if you miss the bolt head when putting it onto the bolt.
Or buy a proper alloy wheel socket 👍
@@honestreview1043 makes me laugh when people are shy of spending 20 quid on the proper tool. A penny saved is a penny earnt again but come on...
"Which is always nice" overload :D Can´t be missing in any video .. I´m happy for you to get sponsored, keep going James!
Was looking at getting one of these for wheel nuts and suspension nuts and bolts and you have just helped me make up my mind , cheers for the review looks a handy tool.
Well deserved. Love the channel!. Keep up the great work 👍
Been watching you for a long time you have come a long way
That's why I love my Ryobi Impact Rench 400nm. Like yourself I took ages to purchase one but I'm so glad I did, I'd never go back to not using one! Great review!
Thanks for a great video James!, been considering an impact wrench for a while and your video sold it to me! Literally just received my 43785 with the 4.0Ah battery today. £137 from Amazon Prime. Awesome bit of kit, feels solid! On the one I received, the different increments of torque are marked in white print next to the LEDs 100, 150, 200, 300 and 400NM. Bought it for a Classic Vespa restoration so fingers crossed it won't snap the frame in half lol.
Looks like you’re gonna need a bigger shed
Great video mate. Nice to see a good review 👍
nice to see your channel getting some notice , kepp up the good work
Always watch the ads hoping you get more cash man. You deserve it, not many car youtubers create content as enjoyable as yours.
Nice one James, Good to see you finally getting recognised by some bigger companies.
As someone else mentioned James, try those batteries from the draper in the park side tools if they are the 20v team x, I think you will find they are the same
Good video James. Great review on impact gun.
Got some birthday money and started looking at Torque Wrenches again, rewatched this video and now I want that one. Got a draper torque wrench like yours last year and its my favourite tool.
Update mine turned up yesterday used it this morning removing my Mercedes CLS 320cdi wheel bolts no hassle at all and that's on a fresh battery Draper recommend and tell you the battery will not be upto full capacity once its been depleted and charged 4 to 5 times. But so far very impressed and very happy I watched this video Respect at you fella
You lucky person!! I need this in my job.
Might get one of these to try myself.
Hard to beat a Savage Garage update 😁
I've got a Draper Torque wrench which has never failed me. Nice review.
The mains powered Clarke impact wrench will get you out of trouble when the cordless jobs can't quite cut the mustard. It's got the brute force that's sometimes necessary.
Another good video!
Just a random questions? Given the amount of work you do on multiple cars have you ever considered an air compressor? The initial outlay of buying the compressor is expensive but the cost of tools is considerably cheaper there after?
Keep up the good content! :)
Just picked one of these (and battery) up from local supplier. £116.86 for the kit and £41.51 for a spare battery. Thanks James & Draper for giving you the kit for review.
Looks like a capable bit of kit, Cheers for the upload " J ".
Baz.
I would have tried undoing the wheel nuts on a lower torque setting. You could find out what torques the lower settings are capable of as well.
Great review, respect to Draper.
My lad says your wearing my hoodie 😂
👍👍
I have some S shaped Torx ratchet spanners from Draper that are just awesome, and have saved my bacon a few times working on the Corsa. Great Company.
hi james been watching your vidoes for a while now and think they help a lot. thanks to you i have borught myself one of the darper stormforce inpact gun today you said in the video the lights on the body did not show the torque setting but the one have it does so they must have watched your video and put them on. please keep the videos going
Stretching wheel nuts past the yield point? Sounds fun
210nm 😂
I've got that same Clarke mains impact. Used it once for some seriously rusted nuts and yes it twisted my wrist violently. Got to be careful.
Been using a Hitachi brushless impact wrench now for a good while. Happy with it.
well done mate hard work paying off
How is the parkside air compressor holding up?
“A few ugger duggers”. Great impression 😂. Thanks for the review, looks pretty impressive. I think the battery technology on these tools now is leaping forward. Can’t wait to see it in use in your upcoming videos
I have a similar tool rated around 500nm,that has no problem taking wheel nuts off my 1ton vans. Last guy to put them on just ran em down with an air gun,and it still did it.
Newer battery impacts are awesome,even cheaper ones
I was looking for an impact wrench last year, bought the Ryobi one. The Draper looks a stronger tool to be honest. Thanks for the honest review 👍
Great review!👍 I might get one for myself!
Thanks, I'm wanting one of these after doing some maintenance recently. It's a pain if the car is already raised (wheels spin) etc. I've read some cheaper ones manage to get lug nuts off some of the time or most of the time, not wanting that hassle so seeing this remove 200NM gives me a better feeling about which one to go for. Just a caution I don't know how much it takes but I've read over torquing wheels can warp brake rotors etc. So I wouldn't get a bigger torque wrench and repeat this test again lol. But as I said it was really helpful to see you crack 200NM. Hope nothing was damaged. And one more thing I know it's a minor point but your 4AH battery doesn't really provide any more oomph over a 2AH battery unless the tool has some intelligence built into it. Mostly with these more basic power tools, 18 Volts 4AH is still just 18 Volts and what you've got over a 2AH is really a bigger gas tank - your tool will run for longer. I doubt it's putting out any more torque or speed. Maybe very slightly due to the individual cells being less stressed under load, but it seems a common assumption that more AH means more powerful operation and that's not generally the case. Cheers.
Nice review buddy, have you notice the similarity between the Draper and the Parkside tools? I can see the Parkside battery would work with your Draper with a minor mod.
I noticed this too. Case, charger, battery and the tool very similar to the Parkside wrench.
I'd be tempted to try those parkside/Lidl batteries in it, definitely look like the same fitting as the draper ones
I was hoping to get an impact wrench at some point, can you test this on some of the axle nuts of your cars? be cool to see if it can budge any of those.
Absolutely love draper tools use them all the time. I wish I had the money to afford one of them as it looks like a great piece of kit. 👍👍👍
I thought the world of battery tools until they' both went flat.
Well done....great video..great review...u had me at 210nm.....ive got to get one .....price looks good...
Looks well built. I suspect Lidl will have this in their shops soon. Could be brushless. Nice honest review.
Very nice happy for you man
Great video James keep up the good work very good of draper tools to do that I think sealey should be sending u something after the amount u have shouted them out
How do you rate this after a year of ownership? has it done well in that time? i'm looking into getting an impact wrench and remembered you reviewed this one a year ago and wondered your thoughts on it now, cheers.
I've always used Draper tools and never had an issue 👍
Me to I love them, I have a few sockets and ratchets and two draper drills. The 1/2 impact and a combi drill
Just received my 3/8th drive ratchet from the postie, beautiful tool can’t wait to do some spannering with it, price had crept up to £11.50, but still good value
Hi Savage Garage, any chance you can try your 20v Parkside batteries in this and let us know if they fit? I would buy one if I knew my Parkside 20v batteries would fit it. thanks
Great video buying mine now 👍👍
Nice bit of kit like it a lot may have to get one of them good video
I use the Dewalt DCF899 max torque is 950nm. Came as a kit with 2 5ah batteries, charger & case. Cost me £275 with a discount code. This Draper 1 looks quite nice, Draper tools have never let me down either.
My makita is 1000nm tightening and 1600nm nut busting torque take that for a pissing contest lol
Good bit of kit have a few draper tools myself never let me down.
Good review....been using their gear for years .
Just bought that very ratchet after seeing the mini video very happy with it cheers for the recommendation
Who doesn’t like new tools?
Good, honest review! I guess it’s difficult to talk about tools because they only really do one thing but on the face of it, that looks very reasonable for the money and should do most home tinkerers down to the ground👍
At that price there is no excuse for using a wheel brace, shouting ‘ Ugga dugga’!!😂
Was hoping it would be a decent low profile jack from your instagram post, noticed on the mondeo video the other day that it's quite low and your current jack only just went under. Any plans for a new jack? Can recommend the Sealey 2001LEBL!
ive always thought draper tools are a good solid make, nice video!
Hi,
This is the 1st video I've seen of yours.
Did you find out if it has brushes or not?
What do they do anyway ?
Is it better to have a brushless one?
Do you have a review on Reciprocating Saws?
Love the video great bit of advice because I was thinking the same as you was. I've got the storm force drill and 1/4 hex impact what I use for under trays etc. But abit of advice for the wheel bolts when tightening them torque them up in a star shape formation and in round the clock formation and then when their all torqued up go round in circle to make sure their not lose as when you tighten the first wheel bolt it may feel tight but then when you toque the rest and pull the wheel in to the hub, the first one may still be lose. Not hating just trying to help 👍
Loving this tool
Have a lot of Draper tools in my arsenal, screwdrivers, spanners, ratchets and sockets. Their expert range of sockets are brilliant since they grab the sides of nuts/bolts and not the points they very rarely slip off and round them off perfect if you have some crusty bolts. I use DeWalt for my impacts though since the DCF899H has a stupid amount of torque (950Nm tightening, 1625Nm breakaway) and if it can't get a bolt undone you're gonna need some heat, not found a bolt it can't undo yet, it's even took off axle nuts with ease.
You will find that your parkside batteries may fit your draper and vice versa, you may need to remove a tab, this is due to the tool being sold under several different company names as draper don’t make, design or build their own stuff.
I was just about to ask if they were compatible as they looked identical.
@@Sparkplugsteve oi ! stop watching youtube and get your arse outside to work on that fiesta !
@@lofty7180 haha I will be back on it soon.
Good man ! You need to get those sexy ass black n red Coilies fitted. (Is it wrong that i read your comments in a welsh accent ???)
I own a very similar corded tool as the one you showed, it's a beast! Move just about any stubborn rusted bolt! But the inconvenience of getting the extension lead out, setting up and then the possibility of it raining lol typical British weather, has brought me to consider a cordless half inch drive impact! And for the price.... and your review, I am seriously looking into purchasing one now. Thanks.... as for a possible cheaper Parkside one.... would it hold up to this? I haven't seen any reviews of it performing like this has.....:-)
The storm force system looks fairly good value the 9 piece kit you showed is just over 500 quid, would be good to see the quality of the other tools, need a big cordless kit for a site I maintain to keep tools on site save me lugging my makita tools around. edit shame it doesn't have a planer I use those quite often.
Great review i have been looking for a cordless impact wrench for a few weeks but dont want to buy expensive as i only need it for taking off lawnmower blades and as i do some on site ride on mowers it will bee easier using a cordless as well in my work shop do they still make that model you have.
I have to say. It absolutely reminds me of the 1/2 inch Parkside impact driver. The design, the look and shape of the charger and the battery, that is supposedly do 400Nm. I'm 100% sure that is not made by Lidl, but rather made by Draper in different labels and colours. Would be interesting to know it those would be interchangeable between them two brands.
Parkside PASSK 20-Li A1
Do you mean the 1/2 inch Parkside impact wrench? The impact driver has a 1/4 inch hex bit.
I have the older version of this which I think is pretty much the same other than the design, great bit of kit paid about £100 on eBay brand new will do most bolts only thing I’ve had it struggle with is a front hub bolt but it was extremely tight.
We sell Draper tools and have found the Storm Force range to be a great seller. They have a great back up if anything were to go wrong. I would recommend getting one of the drills from the range. Very useful around the home and workshop. Enjoy your tools.
Great video. If draper are watching definitely need to add Nm amounts would be a.big sell for me
Hello, thanks for the information ... I liked the test of the torque wrench.
I have a Parkside ... the battery is compatible with the draper 59518..???
Gracias
I was waiting for you to tighten the nuts up with the different settings and check how tight they were against the torque wrench.
Yes I’ve also got the Clarke impact and it don’t take prisoners at 500Nm both directions, but great for getting hub nuts off.
After watching your video I bought one of these. I don't know where they got the 400 Nm figure from. Mine has trouble taking off wheel nuts from my car. Wish I'd spent a few extra quid and bought a decent one.
Yeah I bought a Parkside side a year or 2 back useless sold it ASAP now got a DeWalt one which I haven't tried yet
A little tip if you have a locking wheel nut , always crack it first with a breaker bar.
I had the model before this one 20v also with 2 3.0ah batteries and it was shocking to be honest but everything else I have used from draper has been great.
I am a huge fan of the Draper expert range I used to use snap on gear at work and we got so fed up of it breaking and having to warranty it OK the repairs for the snap on were free and we never had any trouble but it was just the waiting time to get things back that was a nightmare we decided to go with the Draper stuff which is great quality and bulletproof and is really priced sensibly I am not a lover of the Draper I think its the redline range I had a ratchet screwdriver that fell apart after very light use but the Expert range cannot be faulted I think its great gear cannot praise it enough
Decided to buy one on the above vlog and watching a few others. Waste of money wouldn't shift my wheel bolts at 180Nm. It also wouldn't shift the 21mm bolts, again 180Nm on the brake calipers. These are not 400Nm impact wrenches, I recon they sent you an upgraded wrench? Yes, the battery was fully charged and on the highest setting. It still had a job to shift the wheel bolts when I cracked them with a breaker bar. Hope this helps others who may be considering this wrench.
You lucky sod. Keep up the good work bud
when buying cordless tools it's best to try to buy from the same range so that you can use the battery on more than one tool
Those batteries look awfully similar to the Parkside ones, are they the same format?
That looks like a nice impact wrench, well done for getting it for free .... I purchased last year the most powerful Dwalt impact wrench and to be honest, it's an animal..!! ... It has 3 settings on it .. 1st setting = 50nm .... 2nd setting = 250nm ... 3rd setting = 950nm .... Maybe just a little bit to powerful lol ... Tell you what though, it's never NOT undone a bolt or nut ;-) .... I'm like you, got loads of tools for different jobs, my collection dates back from the 70's till now ;-)
The sockets have a hole in them and there is also a hole in the 'tool splint' ( where the socket fits onto the driver). What are these for ?
if you gonna test thos tool, i wonder how it works with full battery and half discharged - does it have less torque or the same
i wanted to see you show how well it does the wheels nuts up, as i think it will struggle for power when trying to do things up. imo theres no getting away from air tools unless you pay big money for a good machine
We love a little “Ugga jugga” 😂
I still use Draper tools that I've owned since the late 1980's 😜
wonder if they will ever do a 3/8 gun using the same batteries, would be convenient because you dont have too work about not being interchangeable
Great. You deserved it. Keep up the good work
Hi James, don't suppose you are getting rid of your clarke one?
Hey. What Model is the Dewalt. I was just on the web looking to get the 3/8 brushless dcf902. Please let me know what you have there
I think the Draper will come into it's own the next time you're undoing any really rusty suspension bolts. Those first few "ugger juggers " will break loose the rust nicely. Is it just me or does anyone else love the new plastic smell of new stuff like this?
Thought you might have mentioned for safety about using the correct type of impact sockets when using the impact tools...
Like you i have used Draper tools for years although i purchased a set of ratchet spanners from Draper that had a black finish.
Only after using the spanners a couple of time the black finish started to chip and mark.I emailed Draper to complain and
was given a brush off.....I no longer purchase tools from Draper.
Are these same as parkside? I think they are. Batterys look the same and charger as well
The Draper batteries look almost identical to the Parkside batteries, don't suppose they happen to be interchangeable?
Just how many tools does anyone need?
You could easily have checked the settings by tightening at each level then checking how much torque was needed to tighten nuts further. I actually have the Clarke you had. At least it came with sockets which I did not see supplied with the Draper.
I wonder if those are similar to that harbour freight impact all the yanks are raving about, just in blue plastic instead of red.
Real test on that would probably be if it could shift an axle nut.
I have a Ryobi 18V impact. That has been pretty good. Wheel nuts. Some suspension bolts. I even have managed to get a few axle nuts out with it although last one i had, i had to get the meter long breaker bar. Plus the batteries work in all the other 18V tools - drill, hex impact, jigsaw, circular saw, reciprocating saw, lights, grinder. etc I have been pretty happy with mine.
It doesn't appear to be similar to the Harbor Freight Earthquake model. That thing is bulkier and has significantly more torque (1200 ft lbs, though i don't think you can believe those numbers ;-) it does look more similar to another model that HF sells under their 'Bauer' brand, though they are claiming 450 ft lbs for that one.
Do proper enjoy your videos bro keep it up 👌🏼🤙🏼
The battery looks very similar to the parkside one does it fit?
What brand is that strong corded impact gun and where can i buy it im looking for something really strong
